its really a sad thing when you are having a conversation about: if you could go back in time knowing what you know now and redirect your life route to completely avoid a certain portion and in that portion is where you and this other person met, and you genuinely ask if they would be willing to never meet the people they've met including yourself, and would be willing to have the memories you have together with them erased and the experiences to never have occurred, and they say well im sure i would have had good experiences and encountered a lot of other good people and made other meaningful memories if i went the other. and while all of thats true and also an impossible thing to make happen, the fact that they dont even hesitate and can even say yes, i would do it knowing everything and everyone i know right now. id go back and take that other route. its really a sad thing when you’re having a conversation with your best friend, and really putting yourself in the mindset of a place where this would be possible, and they just say well id meet other people, experience other things, and then they tell you that you are in a weird mood.
